Platinum Contributing Member Highmark Posted October 19, 2021 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted October 19, 2021 I thought this was a joke at first. I thought these people were supposed to be more inclusive of everyone? https://www.foxnews.com/us/oberlin-college-student-angry-cisgender-work-crew-radiators-safe-space A student at Oberlin College in Ohio described being "scared" and "angry" after the school announced a work crew would be installing radiators in a "safe space" dormitory for women and trans students, explaining the crew would likely be "cisgender men." "I was angry, scared, and confused. Why didn’t the College complete the installation over the summer, when the building was empty? Why couldn’t they tell us precisely when the workers would be there? Why were they only notifying us the day before the installation was due to begin?" Oberlin student Peter Fray-Witzer wrote in an op-ed published in the college newspaper on Friday. The student said he grew concerned because he had not heard of the installation plans before a school email was sent on Oct. 7. He explained that the crew would likely be cisgender men entering Baldwin Cottage, which is home to a "safe space" for "women and transgendered persons." "In general, I am very averse to people entering my personal space. This anxiety was compounded by the fact that the crew would be strangers, and they were more than likely to be cisgender men." The work crew eventually showed up at the dorm, and Fray-Witzer described that he saw "immediately that they were all men." "It was clear that the College had not made a special request that male workers not be allowed onto the upper floors of Baldwin," the student continued. Fray-Witzer asked a representative of the college - who he called "Polo Man" because he was wearing a "neat polo" - who accompanied the crew if he could reject getting the radiator installed. The college emissary apparently said no, and the student left for class to allow the work crew to make the dorm improvements. "By the time I had come back, they appeared to be done, though Polo Man warned me that they would return later in the week to check the insulation. Sure enough, they were back the next day. I felt mildly violated and a little peeved." 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlos Danger Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 Seems like the college has done a fine job in preparing the youngster for the real world. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
